World Swallowtail Day helps people of all ages and from all over the world to become more familiar with these amazing butterflies. By visiting them in their natural habitats, studying them in sustainably managed butterfly houses, botanical or zoological gardens, and learning more about them in the company of experts in universities, schools, museums and research centres, we are all able to contribute to a better future for swallowtails.
Monteserra Butterfly House will join the event by guiding visitors in the garden talking about local species and how to attract and feed them. Children will receive special drawings to colour prepared by the Swallowtail and Birdwing Butterfly Trust.
